I, spanking lesbian

Spanking Lesbian front cover. The cover has a white background with the text, and a smaller square in the center, depicting an image of two naked women, both brunettes. One of them stands to the right of the image holding a stick with her left hand. Her hair is straight and long and covers her bare chest. She is leaning over another woman who lies on her stomach, head away from the reader. Her buttocks are fully visible from the back, and the stick that the other woman holds is over and across them. The headboard of the bed is partially seen in front of her head, which is partially visible under her shoulder blades. The scene is lit from the front right, seemingly with artificial light.

Journey to fulfillment

Journey to Fulfillment front cover. The cover art is made up of text and solid colour fields. The title is shown in large, green letters, distributed diagonally across the center of the cover. Below the title, and also diagonally distributed, more letters, in a different and smaller font but also green, name the author of the book. At the top left, and also in a different font, more small green letters hint on the topic of the story. At the very bottom, another set of green, small letters describes the story as the first in a series. There is also a logo at the top right, seemingly of the publishing house or imprint. The background is a solid peach framed within a wide, green margin that matches the colour of the text.

Lesbian in our society (The)

The Lesbian in Our Society front cover. A blond woman leans over to her left, her back to the reader at a three-quarter angle, at the left of the image and occupying most of the visual space. She is fully naked and is visible from her head to her calves. The book's title type covers her buttocks partially. Her legs seem to be together, and the back of her right arm is only partially visible, tucked in front of her hips. Her head is turned sharply to the right, and she looks over her right shoulder at something behind her, at a lower level. Her hair is tied at the back and is straight. Her expression is serene, yet ambiguous.

Lesbos jungle

The Lesbos Jungle front cover. Two women in the image seem to attack a single man in what looks like a back street alley. A red brick wall is behind them. A garbage bin is partially shown in the foreground, and a wooden crate is partially revealed to the left. There is a bottle on the ground and a puddle. The blonde on the left of the image is shown ripping off the man's shirt, while the brunette on the right grasps his arm by the bicep. The women are fully dressed while the man wears jeans and boots; his belt is unbuckled, and his jeans are half-unzipped. The blonde is wearing a white, turtle-neck sweater, black leather pants and black leather boots and her hair is long, with bangs across her forehead. The brunette is wearing a white turtle-neck blouse under a black leather jacket, black leather stiletto boots and white pants. Her hair is short and wavy. The man looks surprised and scared, right arm bent, hand in front of his face as if trying to cover his eyes from the light that comes from the front left. His eyes and mouth are wide open.

Loving and the daring (The)

The Loving and the Daring front cover. To the left of the image, a woman, redhead, is shown descending the steps of a stone stairway with a wrought iron railing. She wears a green, knee-high skirt, an orange-red cardigan, and brown, high heel shoes. Her left hand is on the railing, her right arm is stretched over her right side. Her eyes are slightly closed and look toward another woman, whose face and shoulders are seen in the foreground, to the bottom-right of the image. She is a brunette with short, curly hair. Her face is heavily made up and partly faces the reader, slightly bent towards the right bottom corner of the image. Her eyes are slightly closed and look back toward the woman on the stairway but do not look straight at her. Her lips are slightly parted and her eyebrows appear raised. She seems to be wearing an off-shoulders gold and black-trimmed gown, and earrings. The scene is lit from the top left.

My name is Sappho

My Name is Sappho front cover. The scene is outdoors, at and around a Greek temple which shows partially to the left of the image, revealing one column and partially revealing its frieze, architrave and cornice. Steps are also visible at the bottom left. A brunette (presumably Sappho) stands in front of the column. She has her hair up and a white headband around it. A large, looped earring can also be seen on her right earlobe. She is wearing a white, sleeveless, long dress with a high slit over her right thigh, and a V-neck, and is barefoot, her right foot pointing atop the ground behind her body. The woman faces right at a three-quarter angle to the reader, and carries a barbiton, a classical Greek stringed-instrument, in her hands, diagonally in front of her body. Her gaze is lost in the distance. A heavily-clouded sky can be seen behind and over her, and a water body surrounded by buildings and trees, with can be seen in the bottom right of the image. The sun is behind a mountain in the distance, casting a shadow of the woman on the column.
